2006 RIDE @ Kennywood - Name the Ride Contest

Wow, that girl saying that is so obvious. LOL funny.

Chattanooga needs a [B][I]ITG2[/I][/B] Machine!
The video seems to be the same one found on www.rideentertainment.com - except that the S&S logo doesn't swoop in.

How about the "Swing Ride with the sucky S&S lapbars". I rode Eruption at Great Adventure two years ago and absolutely hated the lapbars. They are extremely uncomfortable.
Kennywood will now be the park with the most attractions that have side loading lap bars.

Gotta agree with RamblinWreck, that last contest left a sour taste, LOL...

Not that I won't enter *a* name (that means one entry, LOL), but I predict it'll end up being something...predictable...;)

Everyone was disappointed with Waldameer's "name the coaster" contest for their spinny mouse too.

Can't please us. :)

You have to live in a certain state to participate? Forget that.

I feel you on this, but I like the name Vulcan's Fury for a B & M Inverted.

Well seeing that you and 31 of your friends will be invited im sure they don't want someone from CA to win. Just a thought...

But to me, if you're paying your way to the park, they shouldn't care where you're from. If I win with my so far over 10 guesses, I have a few friends from the midwest and even Cali that I'll invite, as long as they can get themselves here.

Moosh, I actually submitted 'Screamin Swinger' just because of Screaming Swing.

Brett, have you ridden one yet(just curious)? Although a short cycle, the one at KBF was really fun, and it looks like an actual flat ride, not some Flugly S&S ride, which was my first thought when I saw it for the first time, As long as the larger version looks mostly the same, it should, to me, actually fit in with Lost Kennywood.

Exactly, Moosh.....as IF Stan hadn't already DONE the work to make sure the ride name was descriptive, bland, and suitable for ALL occasions...it's like Mexican food without the cilantro! ;)

IF you're going to have a contest, make sure you're trying to "fit a theme" or something....otherwise, the manufacturer name for the ride is probably MORE than acceptable...

Zoomerang, Spinning Mouse, Gigacoaster....whatever. Either be *creative*, or stick with the name the ride already HAS...:)


You still have Zoidberg.... You ALL have Zoidberg! (V) (;,,;) (V)

You can always as some of us CBuzzers out here. *cough cough*

OK, corkscrewy, let the bidding begin...

It is funny they restrict eligibility to PA, OH, MD, and WV. Even funnier they don't cutoff any part of Pennsylvania east of Route 219. God forbid someone from the eastern part of the state might win! (Puck Fitt!) We'd probably stand a better chance of being named the next Pope.

No, I haven't ridden one yet, the one at KBF was built after I was there, either that or I completely missed it. Just the concept of a large ride in that area of the park disturbs me, but hey, we'll see once it's built.

Hmm, Philly folks jealous of Pittsburghers? Well now, there's a first for ya. First Pitt overtakes Penn State, now Pittsburgh's overtakin' Philly, heck before ya know it, the Pirates might have a winning season and you all know the next step ... ANARCHY!

Oh, come on! Don't everyone tell me I'm the only one low enough to make that my very first submission. :)

Along with the variations of:

Screamin' Swing

and

Scream 'N' Swing

Got to cover all the bases (and the LCD mentality) before you go for the good stuff. :)


OoOo....I have and Idea we could go with Screaming Swing 1 "Screaming Swing 1 has broken down" ...lol! or something Generic.....To Catapult.." I love To Catapult".....not many good names for a ride like that!
